DA
Tried to face up to the blinding sun
Bm
Racing for the final word to come
GG/F#
Facing up is hard, to stay devout
DAG
I can't see the sand and it's running out
DG
And it's running out
DA
We quote each other only when we're wrong
Bm
We tear out the threads and move along
GG/F#
Can't seem to find common ground
DAEm
I can't see the sand and it's running out
A
It was only circumstances
D
But it's the difference
A
It gets in the way
EmA
No race is run in this direction
D
You can't break even
ABm
You can't even quit the game
DGDABmGDAGDGD
The current drags to the bottom
A
A hemorrhage that moves us around
Bm
Pulls and beckons, strong direction
GG/F#
High water forever bringing us down
DAG
I can't see the sand and it's running out
DG
It's running out
EmA
It was only circumstances
D
But it's the difference
A
It gets in the way
EmA
No race is run in this direction
D
You can't break even
AGD
You can't even quit the game
